polarity, and operating mode. It also provides information to the user about conversion
status, EEPROM activity, and thermostat activity. The configuration register is arranged as shown in
Figure 4 and detailed descriptions of each bit are provided in Table 5. This register can be read from and
written to using the Access Config command. Note that the POL and 1SHOT bits are stored in EEPROM
and all other configuration register bits are SRAM.
